Figure Skater Cha Jun Hwan Finally Reunites In Person With Actress Jin Ji Hee And Netizens Are Obsessed

It’s been over 10 years since figure skating reality show Kim Yuna’s Kiss And Cry aired but fans still can’t get over this adorable pair. Olympic figure skater Cha Jun Hwan and Penthouse actress Jin Ji Hee were once the maknae duo on the show. They were both in elementary school when the show aired. As Cha Jun Hwan’s popularity rose after the 2022 Beijing Olympics, his appearance went viral.

It was previously reported that the two were set to appear on Running Man together! It would be the first time in 11 years that the pair will meet in person. While the actual broadcast will air on March 13, 2022, a special behind-the-scenes interview clip was released on March 9, 2022.

How did Jun Hwan react to seeing his noona for the first time in 11 years? He was all smiles of course! He was very happy to have reunited with Jin Ji Hee through Running Man and thanked the show for the opportunity.

He thought that the appearance was made more enjoyable by her presence.

The two even got closer through the show and promised to drop the formalities with each other from then on.

Firstly, it’s the first time I’m meeting Ji Hee noona in 11 years, and she’s also an actress I have been cheering on and also I’m happy to have been able to have been able to come on to Running Man. It was also made fun because of Ji Hee noona.
